[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#804217: virt-viewer: Please package version 2.0

[Johannes Ranke]

Package: virt-viewer
Version: 1.0-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

As the changelog for version 2.0 lists some fixes for various crashes
and memory leaks

https://virt-manager.org/download/

I think the new version should be provided in Debian. Unfortunately,
this involves packaging new versions of spice-gtk and spice-protocol as
well.

Kind regards,

Johannes Ranke
